Lyrics
[Chorus] Give me simple things
What a lucky life it brings
Turn the campus noise right down
Best peace I ever found
Oh, I don't need a trend
I just want a real friend
Yeah, it's everything to me (everything)
'Cause this is the real me
[Verse 1] Skip the pressure, let the grading scale slide
Tuning out the drama that we all try to hide
Laptop closed, the air is sweet
Walking down the dorm hall in my bare feet
Real vibes in the morning glow (morning glow)
Taking it slow
[Pre-Chorus] Maybe I'm dreaming bigger than a check
Building up a future that they all neglect
Setting my spirit free (so free)
This is exactly where I wanna be
[Chorus] Give me simple things
What a lucky life it brings
Turn the campus noise right down
Best peace I ever found
Oh, I don't need a trend
I just want a real friend
Yeah, it's everything to me (everything)
'Cause this is the real me
[Verse 2] Midnight coffee and the way that you speak
Chasing all the questions when the answers are deep
You look past the surface, you challenge my mind
Unlocking a beauty I was trying to find
With your quiet wisdom, my world is redefined (redefined)
Growing stronger in mind
[Pre-Chorus] Maybe I'm dreaming bigger than a check
Building up a future that they all neglect
Setting my spirit free (so free)
This is exactly where I wanna be
[Chorus] Give me simple things
What a lucky life it brings
Turn the campus noise right down
Best peace I ever found
Oh, I don't need a trend
I just want a real friend
Yeah, it's everything to me (everything)
'Cause this is the real me
[Bridge] No career fairs
(No empty glares)
No superficial glares
(Just songs in the air)
Just coffee cups and your hand in mine
Walking through the quad, freezing out the time
I found my purpose, deep and worth it, way beyond the surface
Yeah, look at us now—this is the real me
[Chorus] Give me simple things
What a lucky life it brings
Turn the campus noise right down
Best peace I ever found
Oh, I don't need a trend
I just want a real friend
Yeah, it's everything to me (everything)
'Cause this is the real me.
